Induced Soil Suppressiveness to a Root-Knot Nematode Species by a Nematicide
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that application of DiTera to soil led to enhanced antagonism of root-knot nematodes and that this was associated with structural and functional changes of the rhizosphere bacterial community.

Rhizobacterial exopolysaccharides elicit induced resistance on cucumber.
TL;DR: The results indicate that EPS from specific rhizobacteria can elicit induced resistance and suggest that bacterial EPS might be a useful elicitor of resistance under field conditions.

Measuring the spermosphere colonizing capacity (spermosphere competence) of bacterial inoculants.
TL;DR: An alternative method was developed to differentially rank bacteria for spermosphere colonizing capacity, based upon incorporation of bacteria into a soil and monitoring the resulting sper atmosphere population densities around noninoculated seeds after 4 days at 14 degrees C.

Control of plant parasitic nematodes with furfural: a naturally occurring fumigant
TL;DR: The efficacy of furfural (2-furfuraldehyde) as a nematicide was studied in greenhouse and microplot experiments and the number of root galls induced by Meloidogyne arenaria in 'Summer Crookneck' squash (Cucurbita pepo) after 8 weeks was reduced proportionately to the rate of Furfural applied to the soil before planting.

TL;DR: The data indicate that traditional marker systems may underestimate populations and hence the survival and colonization of genetically marked bacteria.
